The skill of being able to edit a photo is a must for anyone fluent in technology. It can help speed up the process of uploading photos for a project, correcting mistakes, and even help "spice" up the mundane. While newer computers might come with a photo editing app (iPhoto, Preview, etc.), not all of them do. Some sites are better than others. Additionally there are many Chrome Extensions that contain photo editing and do a great job!
